Hawthorn winger Isaac Smith believes the Hawks will enter this AFL finals campaign as the hunter rather than the hunted.Alastair Clarksons side will kick off their bid for a fourth consecutive flag when they take on Geelong at the MCG next Friday night and Smith insists theyre deserved underdogs.Theres two teams above us on the ladder so were definitely going out to hunt them, Smith told reporters on Friday.Theyve got the right to be the favourites going into the game.Hawthorn held a closed training session on Friday morning, with most selection interest centred on injured pair Ben Stratton (pectoral) and Ben McEvoy (back), whose chances of playing have been helped by the contentious bye weekend.While not a fan of the bye as a football lover, Smith admitted it had come at a good time from a team perspective.Weve not been disappointed in the way that weve been playing but we believe we can playy better, he said.ddddddddddddIt was probably a good time to take (stock) and realise where we probably werent performing and where we can get that five or 10 per cent better.I think you can always improve things.
